I work at a federal credit union and i have seen COVID-19 wipe-out people's savings. They can't make they loan payments, which plunges their credit score. CATCH 22...You know when this first started in March 2020 or so.... I told my boss that I wasn't so worried about the virus, I was worried more about the fallout at the end...I believed that the gov't wasn't handling it correctly and I still don't....The virus didn't throw us under the bus is the economics dept... the gov't did that....I had people I know die from the virus and yes it is deadly, but so is economic destruction...Already had one person commit suicide do to the stress of COVID-19 not finding any help for his family. I agree that was the sad and thoughtless way out but it has happened more than once in 2020....
I know of several individuals personally that have been affected by this crisis...For my part, I take food and supplies to the FOOD BANKS in my county...And, I try to inform those affected about different groups that help.... I have also started a GO FUND CAMPAIGN for one elderly person who is about to lose his house due to his lost of income because the Gov't shut down all the places where he sold his product that he makes....

May 2021 be joyous and safe for you all....
